Satanic Temple Wants To Distribute Activity Book To Kids At Orange County, Florida Public Schools

A Satanist group wants to hand out the “Satanic Children’s Big Book of Activities” and other devilish material to students at Orange County Public Schools in Florida.

The Satanic Temple, a New York-based organization, said Monday it decided to supply religious pamphlets related to its tenets and philosophy to protest the dissemination of Bibles in the school district by evangelical Christians.

“I am quite certain that all of the children in these Florida schools are already aware of the Christian religion and it’s (sic) Bible, and this might be the first exposure these children have to the actual practice of Satanism,” Lucien Greaves, the temple’s spokesman, said in a statement.

The Satan worshippers said they do not want to establish a precedent of providing religious pamphlets in public schools and prefer a strict separation of church and state.

“If a public school board is going to allow religious pamphlets and full Bibles to be distributed to students — as is the case in Orange County, Florida — we think the responsible thing to do is to ensure that these students are given access to a variety of differing religious opinions,” Greaves said.

The Satanic Temple is best known for their ongoing attempts to erect a Satanic monument at the Oklahoma State Capitol where a 10 Commandments monument is displayed.

A representative for the school district was not immediately available for comment.

We get where they’re going with the idea that if Christian material is allowed at the school other religions should also be permitted but come on now…
